Ailey II, ABT II, and Taylor 2 come together at the Joyce for two weeks of performances in repertory, showing off the next generation of talent from these prestigious companies. On opening night, all three will take the stage for a one-time-only special event. After that, they’ll rotate evenings, with Ailey II presenting Christopher Huggins’s ESSENCE, Thang Doa’s ECHOES, and Carlos dos Santos’s PROXIMITY, ABT II performing Jerome Robbins’s INTERPLAY along with world premieres by Roger VanFleteren and Edwaard Liang, and Taylor II staging AUREOLE, 3 EPITAPHS, COMPANY B, and ESPLANADE. In addition, each company will participate in a postshow Dance Chat (Ailey II on April 14, Taylor 2 on April 15, ABT II on April 20), where the audience will get to learn a little more about these young dancers.
